This patch appears to fix the bug as described, and running
the regression tests on Python 2.5a0 (CVS HEAD) turns up no
problems.  Since the documentation says that a GzipFile
"simulates most of the methods of a file object," I would
expect GzipFile.flush() to act in the way that David
described in the first paragraph of the bug report, and his
patch seems to provide that as far as I can tell.

Note: I only ran tests on Python 2.5a0 built with MSVC .NET
on Windows XP.
